Sophie Kinsella is my favourite author, I have never read a bad book by her, and never read a book by her that I haven’t rated 5 stars. Will chaos ensue, or will Becky manage to bring comfort and joy to Christmas? My Review With sister Jess demanding a vegan turkey, husband Luke determined that he just wants aftershave again, and little Minnie insisting on a very specific picnic hamper – surely Becky can manage all this, as well as the surprise appearance of an old boyfriend and his pushy new girlfriend, whose motives are far from clear. Unable to resist the draw of craft beer and smashed avocado, Becky’s parents are moving to ultra-trendy Shoreditch and have asked Becky if she’ll host Christmas this year. Sorted!īut this year looks set to be different. It’s always the same – Mum and Dad hosting, carols playing, Mum pretending she made the Christmas pudding, and the next-door neighbours coming round for sherry in their terrible festive jumpers.Īnd now it’s even easier with online bargain-shopping sites – if you spend enough you even get free delivery. Expect Christmas sparkle, butterflies-in-your-stomach romance and a lot of very funny moments in The Twelve Dates of Christmas.The brilliant laugh-out-loud festive novel from the Number One bestselling author.īecky Brandon (née Bloomwood) adores Christmas.
Hilarious, uplifting and romantic, it's a story about losing love, finding love and discovering what's been there all along. This is the story of Claudia and her 12 dates of Christmas. One thing's for certain: this year, Christmas is going to be very different.
With best friends Penny and Nick at her side, a surplus of festive markets, mulled wine and Christmas tunes, Claudia attempts to face all this change with gusto. It's also filling up with dates, surprisingly. Life alone is exciting, scary and full of soon-forgotten exercise regimes and ill-advised attempts at crafting sexy underwear. But when the night ends in disaster, Claudia suddenly finds herself facing life - and Christmas - alone. Determined to inject some festive spark back into their love life, Claudia and Seth go on their first date in a very long time. Winner of the Novelicious Debut of the Year AwardĪt 30, Claudia's life is stale and the romance with long-term boyfriend Seth has disappeared.
